Safely Clean a Pistol in 5 Minutes Using This Method

If you own a gun, then you know it’s a major benefit to feel as though you can protect yourself and those around at any time. It’s particularly important in the wilderness or in the wake of a crisis that could spark violence and pilfering. If you use your gun often, whether at the shooting range or outdoors, then you’re an expert at knowing it’s anatomy. However, when was the last time you properly gave it a good cleaning? Your once sharp and effective pistol could become dangerous and faulty if you don’t give it the extra TLC it deserves.

This cleaning method only takes a few minutes out of your day and a couple of tools, including CLP (cleaning, lubricant, and protectant). If you’re unfamiliar with or concerned about disassembling your gun, this method will walk you through shining each and every piece. It’s not as difficult as it seems! Be sure to unload your gun first, though.
